Lots of nothings...


I was a very good girl this morning. I re-vamped the letters to the teachers and wrote them emails asking if they'd like to have a hard copy delivered or have the letters emailed. We shall see how good they are at checking their email now. If I don't hear from them by Tuesday, I will hand deliver hard copies.

Otherwise, it was quite an uneventful evening (after DH got home, I calmed down) and morning. The girls slept, and my son did not - poor Grandma! I doubt they will be sleeping over for a long time after she moves... maybe he will do better when he is a bit older? I hope so, though his "need for sameness" seems to be getting worse with time, not better.


Last night, I took a break from all things Twilight (amazing feat!) and watched Valkyrie last night - my first Blu Ray movie. It was excellent. I never knew much about Nazi history... I wonder how true that story was? I guess I can go look it up, but I'm too lazy to read any history today.

I really like the Blu Ray look... makes me want to rent other movies on Blu Ray (you must know which movie I'd rent first lol).

The biggest problem with that is that I can only watch a movie after the kids go to bed and they will not sleep if I am not upstairs until they are deeply asleep. If they wake up and I'm not in my room, they freak out - especially DS... and once the freak-out begins, it lasts for hours. So, I usually watch a movie on the little screen in my bedroom. The Blu Ray machine and big screen TV are in the living room, downstairs.

I can rent as many movies as I want on Blu Ray, but the only time I'd be able to watch them is if they are not home. I'm usually busy while they are at school, so that's out... that leaves me with the only time I can watch a Blu Ray is if they sleep over at my mom's... and that won't be repeated for months. I might as well not bother!

Unless, of course, the DVD player in my bedroom dies and I can get a new Blu Ray machine - but I cannot justify to myself spending money on a Blu Ray machine when I have a working DVD player. "Short life to the DVD player!!!" ROFL!!! Then I'll need a nice, new TV, lol. The one in the bedroom is probably 20 years old.

Enough of my rambling - I had better go pick up the kids soon before my mom passes out from exhaustion.
